If most muslims are so peaceful, how come none of them are doing anything about the radicals?

Question

C'mon, you know you run into the wingnuts at prayer meetings, but do you turn them in?

Answer 1

How many christians do you hear speaking out against the insane ravings of Pat Robertson, Falwell, or Fred Phelps? It's the same thing.

Answer 2

In almost every religion it is taught that killing another of your kind is a sin. Killing others outside your religion seems to be ok.
You can no more blame your average muslim for the behavior of a radical than you could blame say a christian for the Spanish inquisition, the crusades, Hitler, or any other religious nutcase.
Every religious denomination; at some time in history; is guilty of murder in the name of God or gods.
Blame Alexander the Great if you must. He invaded Persia for money and pride and used his god as an excuse.
It is no wonder that muslims pray east to Mecca; for only death ever came from the west.
Blame the British for the Crusades. Money was the only reason. Saladin let Christians live free in Jerusalem. It was the British, US, and Allies in WW2 that under authority of the United Nations established Israel as a state. Their reason: No Jews in Europe. Nobody bothered to ask the Palestinians. If they just asked for residence in their country they might have said yes. You just never know.
Muslims can blame Christians; Christians can blame Jews; Jews can blame Muslims, but what everyone fails to understand is MONEY is the DEVIL here.
Every Muslim wants to be left alone about this and I don't blame them one bit for 911 or any terrorist act.
These radicals are murderers who just happen to worship God.
What about the Christian or Jewish ones.
It is a big world and there are many faiths.
All have one common ground.
PEACE.
If a Muslim could; they would stop them.
But we need to stop killing each other in America first; before we start imposing our ideas of justice abroad.
There will come a day when a suicide bomber or gunman decides for him/herself that it is wrong.
That will be GOD's most proud moment of us all.
He gave us free will; so we can consider the actions and consequences of others; and question their reasons; and to do what is right and not wrong.
I am proudly a Christian Catholic; and I want to learn of other people and cultures in the world. This I do so in order to understand; and not to interfere or impose my ideology to others unless they ask of their own free will.
Remember God chooses you and excludes no one.
To quote some of the Koran: "God loves infinite variety".
To quote Old Testament: "Thou shalt not kill" No exceptions.
New Testament: "Love one another" Jesus
I just know for certain that if God gets really mad; he will destroy the world with such style that it will look like an accident.
You know fire, flood, famine, pestilence, disease, and maybe a meteor strike.
"I only pray for the humble Muslim; because right now being a Muslim is a challenge.

For they need God the most; I give them my selfish prayers; until such time when they can live in peace." Eddie

Answer 3

Come on, you know plenty of people who smoke dope, why don't you turn them in? People go to church, mosque, temple to worship. Not to finger their friends.

These wingnuts you speak of, are very good at blending in. The radicals that you will see in most congregations, are just people, speaking their mind. If you locked up all the radicals in religous organizations, and burnt the buildings down, there wouldn't be enough people left to guard them. And the suicide bombers would still be out there. That's the problem.

Answer 4

Because Islam, like Christianity teaches people to be patience with the Radicals.

Turn them in?
It's never an option as most Moslems don't trust the Police anyway!

Answer 5

The main reason, is that the Muslims don't want to inter-fear. and You tell me why do Christians or other religion stop all the crime that goes on in this world, and stop the poverty.

The problem with the U.S , its the richest in the world, but most of the money is being spent on war. Not on any peace.

Answer 6

Supposedly it was some Muslims that ratted out Zarq. Did they do it for a reward? If they did it to stop bloodshed that would be a very big step in the right direction.

Answer 7

do you reallly know anything about muslims and the middle east besides from the American news?you really think we run into them in mosques,and they trully talk about killing non muslims there?they wouldnt dare because policemen arrest them.Besides,you hear about your marines killing iraqi babies,why wont you stop them from all the masacres and totures in your prisons?thisquestion should be really addressed to governments from both sides,besides radicals work secretly and carefully,so how would you expect an ordinary muslim stop them?comeon,be fair,if it was as easy as you make t sound,nothing bad would have happenned in this world.

Answer 8

and what do you think all these Muslims on this site are doing?

for some reason they don't let you hear our voices. many scholars gathered together and condemned terrorists behaviors. But they are blocking their voices from reaching you. i am not sure why.

Answer 9

the radicals are fund by other muslims
muslims give 30%

Answer 10

You won't hear about it because it doesn't make for good journalism or television.
